Think you know the real Barack Obama? You don't�not until you've read The Amateur In this stunning expos�, bestselling author Edward Klein�a contributing editor to Vanity Fair, former foreign editor of Newsweek, and former editor-in-chief of the New York Times Magazine�pulls back the curtain on one of the most secretive White Houses in history. He reveals a callow, thin-skinned, arrogant president with messianic dreams of grandeur supported by a cast of true-believers, all of them united by leftist politics and an amateurish understanding of executive leadership. In The Amateur you'll discover: Why the so-called �centrist" Obama is actually in revolt against the values of the society he was elected to lead Why Bill Clinton loathes Barack Obama and tried to get Hillary to run against him in 2012 The spiteful rivalry between Michelle Obama and Oprah Winfrey How Obama split the Kennedy family How Obama has taken more of a personal role in making foreign policy than any president since Richard Nixon�with disastrous results How Michelle Obama and Valerie Jarrett are the real powers behind the White House throne The Amateur is a reporter's book, buttressed by nearly 200 interviews, many of them with the insiders who know Obama best. The result is the most important political book of the year. You will never look at Barack Obama the same way again.

In The Amateur (2012) author Edward Klein focuses on the inexperience and ineptness of Barack Obama. The author points out that Barack Obama simply lacks the temperament to be president. As I was listening to this book in my car, the following words describing Barack Obama came to mind: detached, aloof, arrogant, haughty, naive, narcissistic, and cold. The book also explains the influence of Pastor Jeremiah Wright and Valerie Jarrett over Barack Obama. Of course, supporters of Barack Obama will dismiss this book as simply another tirade against the president. On the other hand, detractors will have ample ammunition to prove that Obama's lack of experience has created both domestic and foreign policy disasters. Now, with ever increasing health care costs, stagnant wages, and instability in the Middle East, it is safe to say that many of the points brought up in The Amateur have come to fruition.
